The Cartographers’ Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateurs—all are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.

Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.

Myth: The Fallen Lords World Map

Not sure how many of you are (a) old enough and (b) nerdy enough to remember the 1997 computer game "Myth: The Fallen Lords" - but I'm setting a RPG campaign in that world with a mix of the Black Company books, and I was unable to find a nice, detailed map. This was my attempt to create one whole cloth.

Edit: I neglected to mention that I picked up the shields (the symbols near the free cities along the west coast) somewhere at some time, but I have no recollection of where.

Hello Destan, the TFL map looks great. There is still a community that plays Myth II and I am making a map named Chalkwood for it right now. I found your map via Google image and the part near Chalkwood would be perfect for the pregame picture, can I have your permission to use part of the image?
